{"product_id":"9781349221356","title":"Tolkien: A Critical Assessment","description":"Few attempts have been made to arrive at a sober assessment of Tolkien's achievement as a literary artist, and even fewer to define a place for him in twentieth-century literature. This book is a comprehensive and discriminating introduction to Tolkien's work which also aims to redress these deficiencies in earlier criticism. Two chapters are devoted to The Lord of the Rings: a third explores the bewildering profusion of shorter works; the last considers the significance of Tolkien's life and career in the century of modernism.","brand":"Palgrave Macmillan UK","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47038389551344,"sku":"9781349221356","price":59.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781349221356_p0.jpg?v=1763710260","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781349221356","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
